About Queen's Arms
A cobbled Georgian mews pub dating to 1859, tucked away behind the Natural History Museum and Royal Albert Hall.
Reached down one of South Kensington's prettiest cobbled mews, the Queen's Arms has been a fixture of the neighbourhood since 1859, long before the grand museums nearby existed. Traditional wood panelling and an open fireplace sit alongside more contemporary touches, and its tucked-away setting near Gloucester Road makes it feel like a genuine local secret despite standing minutes from the Royal Albert Hall and Kensington Palace Gardens.
On tap
A broad selection of wines, cocktails and cask ale in a cosy, traditional setting.
Food
Hearty pub food served in a wood-panelled dining room, with an open fire for winter.
